In 2007, David Goldhill's father, in good overall health, checked into the hospital with a minor case of pneumonia.…
……核对清单的意义无比巨大，而且这关乎人命。许多人理所当然地问：> 为什么这没在“昨天”就在所有地方普及？我几年前读过的一本书里或许有答案。《Catastrophic Care: How American Health Care Killed My Father—and How We Can Fix It》[0] 这里是它的简介，可以看看你是否想读读它：> 2007年，David Goldhill 的父亲死于一系列感染……
…checklists is enormous, and people's lives are on the line. Many people rightfully ask > Why has this not been adopted everywhere _yesterday_? A book I read a few years ago might have the answer. _Catastrophic Care: How American Health Care Killed My Father—and How We Can Fix It _ [0] Here's the description, to evaluate if you want to give it a read: > In 2007, David Goldhill's father died from a series of infections…

……这也是全职/全福利员工的薪资相对停滞不前的原因之一。而且这一点往往被隐藏了，因为大家通常不明白雇主为了他们的福利得掏多少钱。在我看来，Goldhill 的那本《Catastrophic Care》对此有很精辟的见解。话虽如此——我们还是有理由对这一切保持乐观的。如果这种需求压力迫使工资上涨，可能会提供足够的动力……
…reason why full time / full benefits wages have stayed relatively level. It's been hidden as well since folks don't normally understand how much their employer has to pay for their benefits. The book Catastrophic Care by Goldhill has a good take on this in my opinion. That said - there is a reason to be optimistic about all of this.
